Town Contaminated

Moscow A Russian journalist has uncovered evidence of another Soviet nuclear
catastrophe, which killed 10 sailors and contaminated an entire town.

explosion of a nuclear submarine at the naval base of shkotovo 22 near Vladivostock.

fall-out over the base and nearby town, but was covered up by officials of the Soviet Union.

refit had been a thermal and not a nuclear explosion. And those involved in the clean up
operation to remove more than 600 tones of contaminated material were sworn to secrecy.
